Harry's at it again. Apparently QPR have bid for Ekotto.

Would be a good signing for us imo....Shaw picking up too many niggling injuries, needs to be taken out the firing line for a bit. Shaw is a tremendous but still very young player, we are now very reliant on him as we have no decent LB cover. Ekotto is an experienced LB at this level and would be a good addition to squad at the right price.

He can't be that good if Rose is ahead of him in the pecking order.

Rose is a good young player who is also further into his development than Luke Shaw.

I actually think I agree. We need back up for Luke and Fox just isn't good enough, especially as we will be relying on him a lot this season.

Likewise. Wouldn't mind Ekotto in as well, if only for his haircut.

Props to the kid from Liverpool who just picked his nose and then ate the bogey live on Sky Sports News.

We were rumoured to be interested in that bogey on a loan deal, and now it's been snapped up.

Real Madrid fans aren't happy with the departure of Ozil. That says a lot.

 

[Beef]

Saints media team are winding people up again.

 

[Le Tissier's Laces]

Vas Te on loan to Norwich is an odd one.

 

[Le Tissier's Laces]

Kozak signs for Villa from Lazio. That's a talk, strong forward line they have there now!

@SimonPeach: Sorry to the bearer of bad news but #SaintsFC are done for the day. Nobody else in or out.

Nope, he's wrong. Ignore him. Lets all cling to a false hope and then voice our disappointment.

On a serious note, the only surprise is that no one else has been shifted.

More loans then, I guess.

 

[AL.]

None out? That is strange, but I suppose the loan window opens up for FL clubs soon. Surprised these guys are happy to stay though.

@jordansibley: Well this is a first, should be home in time to watch the fanfare as Jim White arrives in the @SkySportsNews studio!

 

[RickieLambertsGoldenBoot]

All these players that are staying will be on mega money cos of promotion bonuses.

Unless those players are willing to take a wage cut then they won't leave...

Rose was arguably Sunderlands best player last year

 

[Saints FC 76]

Think I'd rather see youth products given minutes here and there rather than spending out on a player just because there was no one else about on deadline day.

 

[Le Tissier's Laces]

Sky going to St Mary's after the break, I'm sure just to tell us that deals are all done.
